Start by spiraling the zucchini to create zucchini noodles. You can use a spiralizer or a julienne peeler. Set the prepared zoodles aside.
Mince the garlic cloves and chop the fresh basil leaves. Set them aside for later use.
In a large skillet, heat one tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the Amylu Chicken Meatballs to the skillet, cooking until they are browned and heated through, about 10-12 minutes. Turn the meatballs occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Once the meatballs are cooked, remove them from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the minced garlic to the hot skillet and sautΓ© for 1 minute or until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the zucchini noodles to the skillet. Toss the zucchini noodles gently in the garlic oil for about 2-3 minutes until they are just tender but still crisp.
Season the zucchini noodles with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Toss in the grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh basil, mixing well to combine all the flavors.
Return the cooked chicken meatballs to the skillet, gently tossing everything together to ensure the meatballs are evenly distributed among the zucchini noodles.
Serve the Low Carb Amylu Chicken Meatballs and zucchini noodles hot, garnished with additional Parmesan cheese and fresh basil if desired.
